Libraries Don't Have To Filter

from the amazing dept

I'm shocked. Here's a court case dealing with technology where it appears the judges actually appear to have made a smart decision. They've decided that libraries don't have to use web filtering products if they want to keep receiving federal money. Of course, it appears the decision is based on the fact that most filters suck - and not because the concept violates our First Amendment Rights. What this means, of course, is that as filters get better, it's possible the government could try again.
